Possibly identical with the hill named as The Dalty or Foolya by Price [PNCW].
Knocknacloghoge is the 459th highest place in Ireland.Trackback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/386/?PHPSESSID=mngrutep1lkme0oa8p7q83bqn4

Decided to approach Knocknacloghoge from the less popular (and possibly in hindsight, less interesting) approach from the NW. Parked at Point 113 074A at a sharp turn in the military road (room for a few cars) and walked back up the road about 750m to Point 120 074B and then set off directly South East across heathery, gently rising terrain. It was bone dry the day I did it, but I imagine it would be a quagmire in the winter. The 'climb' is incredibly gentle - 250m over 2.5km, and the only time any effort was required was the the final 50m ascent. The route as I said was fairly uninteresting although one does get a wonderful sense there of being in the middle of nowhere, no roads, buildings or man-made structures visible in a 360 deg panorama. The summit itself isn't bad as Wicklow goes. It is rocky and defined and presents some fine views. There and back to the car 2.5 hours including a leisurely lunch.
